[flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar - how to change color for only one button
I have a tooglebuttonbar (with 4 buttons) and I'd like to change the color of
only one or two button according particular data. Is someone has experience to
do that.
I try to do like that
var child:Button;
child = Button(tbbAction2.getChildAt(0));
child.setStyle('color', '#CC33CC');
But there's no effect. Thanks a lot.
[flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar, NavBar and selectedIndex - error in accessor implementation?
I found some weird implementation.
The inheritance hierarchie is at follows:
ToggleButtonBar - ButtonBar - NavBar
ToggleButtonBar overrides the accessors and mutators for _selectedIndex. But
why is the Accessor implemented in ToggleButtonBar like:
override public function get selectedIndex():int
{
return super.selectedIndex;
//return _selectedIndex;
}
It seems like this can cause a runtime error since 2 _selectIndex fields exist:
in ToggleButtonBar and NavBar and both are accessed.

[flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar xml based dataProvider

RE: [flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar xml based dataProvider
Certainly. Why would you think not? Though to speak accurately, you would use XMLList or XMLListCollection as the dataProvider.

Re: [flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar with one or more ComboBoxes instead of buttons: How to build it?
Thanks, I should be more clear. The dataProvider would be like a Tree's, so for example an array where some of the elements are leaves (- buttons in the bar) and some are arrays (- dropdown lists in the bar) (no deeper arrays, and no folder names). I want the user to be able to choose a single leaf item from the set, either by clicking one of the buttons or by choosing an item in one of the dropdown lists. -A On Tue, Dec 30, 2008 at 2:31 AM, Manish Jethani manish.jeth...@gmail.comwrote: On Tue, Dec 30, 2008 at 5:46 AM, Alan Shaw noden...@gmail.comnodename%40gmail.com wrote: Requesting advice on how to get started making this custom component.

[flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar (Padding Issue)

[flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar with bindable labels of Buttons - resourceManager
Dear all,
I am using the resourceManager to switch between languages in my flex app.
All labels (i.e. of buttons, textfields...) are bound to locale property
files, that they change immediately, when the user changes the language.
I have a toggleButtonBar in my app and want the labels of the buttons to
change as well. Therefore I use the BindableObjectClass, which extends
Object and has a bindable property label. I use it like that:
mx:ToggleButtonBar
mx:ArrayCollection
components:BindableObject
label={resourceManager.getString(MY_BUNDLE, 'NAME_1')}/
components:BindableObject
label={resourceManager.getString(MY_BUNDLE, 'NAME_2')}/
/mx:ArrayCollection
/mx:ToggleButtonBar
The only problem I have is, that when I change the language, the
ToggleButtonBar disappears for a moment. It appears with the correct
language labels, when all other labels change language. I want the
ToggleButtonBar to remain on stage and just change the language. Does
anybody know another way to do it, that prevents the disappearing?
Thanks in advance, Christoph
[flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar issue - LabelPlacements and icon use

[flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar - bug or misuse?
Hello,
I have a toggle ToggleButtonBar that might end up having an empty
dataProvider (no buttons) during the course of the execution. This causes a
runtime error in the hiliteSelectedNavItem function when it tries to get the
button at index 0 when there isn't one. I was able to fix the problem by
patching the function as follows:
from:
...
if( index -1 ) {
...
to:
...
if (index -1 index numChildren)
...
My question is whether or not a bug, or just a misuse of the component. Is
the ToggleButtonBar designed to always have at least one button? If not,
should I file a bug report and a possible fix?
I'm pretty new to open source projects, so I'm not to sure what the process
is.
Thanks for any input!
~Aaron

Re: [flexcoders] ToggleButtonBar
Thanks for that. (was hoping we would not have to resort to callLaters. What
happens if we reset the dataProvider.? I guess I'll try it out and see)
This is one of the few times, I get both irritated and happy with the the
framework.
... irritated that such a simple/common use case does not have a convenient
api built for it.
... happy that we are able to extend it to suit our needs.

[flexcoders] togglebuttonbar and styles
Greetings, I have a toggle button bar where some buttons need to be styled one way, and the rest styled another (ie, first 4 in a bar of 10 must have a blue background, while the rest should be yellow). The problem is, even though these styles are getting applied to the button (I've verified this through tracing and debugging), the damn things won't actually render until a different component in the app is clicked. For example: Upon first load of the screen, it'll look like this: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y140/svyeta/before.gif http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y140/svyeta/before.gif Then when the answer is selected elsewhere on the page (thus incrementing the position), it'll do this: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y140/svyeta/after.gif http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y140/svyeta/after.gif How can I force these styles to render properly? It's driving me mad! Cheers, Michelle

Kenny, ButtonBar (ToggleButtonBars parent class) has three styles that control the first/last and all button styles: buttonStyleNamefirstButtonStyleNamelastButtonStyleName If you need more fine grained control than this, then youll have to iterate through each child of the ToggleBB and call setStyle on each.

[flexcoders] togglebuttonbar/buttonbar : embedding icons issue
Hello all. Seems that the only way that I've been able to accomplish
embedding icons in a togglebuttonbar/buttonbar control is by doing the
following:
mx:ToggleButtonBar id=tbb iconField=icon width=300
textAlign=left direction=vertical
mx:Array
mx:Object label=Flash
icon=@Embed('/assets/picture.png')/
mx:Object label=Director
icon=@Embed('/assets/picture.png')/
/mx:Array
/mx:ToggleButtonBar
In the above example, we specify the dataprovider as an Array in the
mxml tags.
Now if we try doing this in combination with actionscript:
mx:Script
![CDATA[
private function dostuff() : void
{
var arritems : Array = new Array();
var item : Object = new Object();
item.label = Flash;
item.icon = @Embed('/assets/picture.png');
arritems.push( item );
item = new Object();
item.label = Director;
item.icon = Embed('/assets/picture.png');
arritems.push( item );
tbb.dataProvider = arritems;
}
]]
/mx:Script
mx:ToggleButtonBar
id=tbb
iconField=icon
labelField=label
width=300
creationComplete=dostuff()
textAlign=left
direction=vertical/
The icon dissappears. I'm wondering why there isn't an iconFuction tag
in the togglebuttonbar/buttonbar components. I've tried doing several
variations on the dataprovider and script and have not been able to
embed the icon with exception to how I've shown at the begginning of
this post.
Is this a bug or is there a way to accomplish this in the method that
I'm attempting? Thanks folks :)
